CHAPTER 7Sampling Distributions 7.2 Sample Proportions
Sample Proportions • FIND the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of a sample proportion. CHECK the 10% condition before calculating the standard deviation of the sample proportions. • DETERMINE if the sampling distribution of sample proportions is approximately Normal. • If appropriate, use a Normal distribution to CALCULATE probabilities involving a sample proportion.
The Sampling Distribution of Consider the approximate sampling distributions generated by a simulation in which SRSs of Reese’s Pieces are drawn from a population whose proportion of orange candies is either 0.45 or 0.15. What do you notice about the shape, center, and spread of each?
The Sampling Distribution of What did you notice about the shape, center, and spread of each sampling distribution?
The Sampling Distribution of In Chapter 6, we learned that the mean and standard deviation of a binomial random variable X are As sample size increases, the spread decreases.
The Sampling Distribution of Sampling Distribution of a Sample Proportion As n increases, the sampling distribution becomes approximately Normal. Before you perform Normal calculations, check that the Normal condition is satisfied: np ≥ 10 and n(1 – p) ≥ 10.
